Duran Duran's Ünion of the Snake"-What Was It About?

I find DD to be an interesting group…but I cannot figure out what these lyrics mean.
Was it something sexual?

I believe it was a metaphor, referring to a substantial south-american city though my memory fails me as to exactly which one, I’m sure other dopers will help out.

Labour relations among ophidians?

Wikipedia says it’s about Tantra. No citation, though.

Duran Duran was going for the weird esoteric lyrics to make them sound deep and poetic, I think. The Reflex doesn’t make any sense either.
